The authors’ experience as teachers and practitioners of qualitative analysis methods shines throughout this clearly written, well-structured, and stimulating text. Written guidance, supported by an abundance of illustrative examples, provides a thorough foundation that supports strategies for systematically categorising and analysing qualitative data that build from simple description to complex typology development.

Udo Kuckartz and Stefan Rädiker, have authored an easy-to-understand text addressing qualitative research content analysis. This text has caused me to rethink qualitative data analysis and apply a category system to my own procedures.  I applaud their logical approach, their detailed use of references, and their insight brought to qualitative research. This book will be seen for many years as a leading worldwide text on qualitative data analysis.

- John W. Creswell,

This book does a fantastic job of discussing the historical and theoretical foundations of QCA together with practical considerations for its use.  The inclusion of real-world examples, advice for using qualitative data analysis software, and creative visual displays makes this revision a great resource for researchers analyzing qualitative data within qualitative and mixed methods approaches.
